Abstract

Abstract —The concentration of ATP, ADP, AMP, phosphocreatine and of 5 intermediates of carbohydrate metabolism were determined in rodent brain after single and repeated seizures induced by either electroshock (ES), flurothyl or pentylenetetrazol (PTZ). In paralysed‐ventilated rats, one ES produced a 4–5 fold increase in cortical glycolytic flux (estimated from changes in glucose and lactate), and associated increases in pyruvate and in the lactate/pyruvate ratio. Total high energy phosphates declined during the seizure; a decrease was also calculated in cortical tissue pH and in the cytoplasmic [NAD + ]/[NADH] ratio. Similar changes in brain were observed in ventilated mice after ES, but in paralysed animals, no decrease in high energy phosphates occurred during the first seizure. More vigorous and prolonged chemically‐induced seizures in both rats and mice elicited a decrease in the cerebral energy reserves with a rise in lactate and in the lactate/pyruvate ratio. At all times during the seizures the cerebral venous blood had a higher oxygen tension than that of control animals (rats) or was visibly reddened (mice), implying that oxygen availability to brain exceeded metabolic demands. It is proposed that the development of‘non‐hypoxic’cerebral lactacidosis during seizures is part of the overall metabolic response of the brain to an abrupt increase in energy consumption. The response constitutes a homeostatic influence which promotes cerebral vasodilatation, thereby increasing blood flow and the delivery of substrates. With repeated seizures, delivered 2 min apart, glycogen declined progressively, but concentrations of the adenine nucleotides appeared to plateau, suggesting that a new energy balance had been established. However, after 20–25 seizures, the attacks became self‐generating and there was a further reduction in the tissue high energy phosphate stores, a fall in brain glucose and in the brain/blood glucose ratio. It is concluded that the brain possesses a limited capacity to adjust its metabolism to meet the increased energy requirements of single or repeated seizures, but that this mechanism ultimately fails during status epilepticus unless the abnormal electrical discharges, themselves, are brought under control.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
